Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has
— Margaret Mead


astudio are architects that leave the place better than we found it. Our courage in the pursuit new ways to reduce carbon and change behaviours gained us the coveted title of Architectural Practice of the Year in 2012. This unprecedented achievement led us to establish our Research and Development group whose role is to investigate new ways of seeing and thinking about the challenges we face in the industry. With this group we cross boundaries taking us out of Architecture and understand how working with different fields of expertise can help us solve sustainable construction in new ways. We look to the future to propose workable solutions today.

We develop research and development through collaboration.  Our research lies at the intersection of sustainability, technology and design.
